Short notice, but Texas rapper Riff Raff will perform at Wooly's on Dec. 22. I've never been quite sure if Riff Raff's schtick is real or some kind of elaborate performance piece.

James Franco's character Alien in "Spring Breakers" bears a strong resemblance to Riff Raff, but Franco said the character was based on another rapper. Riff Raff threatened to sue for $10 million, but no lawsuit has been filed yet.

Anyway, tickets to the show are $20 and are on sale now through Ticketfly. Riff Raff's second album, "Neon Icon," comes out in January.
